From the photo’s you provided and the information on the website, it appears it is going to be the cat’s meow.

Forgive my lack of specific knowledge about the XLII (I’m learning), but on my two previous coaches the floor in the evaporator compartment was stainless steel and had drains for condensate right in the floor. I don’t think any harm comes from condensate driaining to the floor and then the drains.
In the southeast where humidities are at the high end of the chart our OTR (and Cruise Airs when running) wring an enormous amount of moisture from the air. Any time I see water dripping or running from a condensate drain I know my AC is doing a good job.

Good to know Ronald, I know the question about the 365’s being in the program had been bounced around and you for sure answered that question.

All of the above? Or else the squeaking caused some brain trauma?

I removed that plastic stuff off the front of our Royale. I worked at it for a hour or a little more a day for a couple of weeks.
I used a hair dryer and a plastic scraper from Pat’s kitchen. I tried a heat gun and it melted the plastic which made it very difficult to remove. I had some of the adhesive stuck after removing the flim. I used an adhesive remover I got at a body shop supply store. It was about $25 for a quart spray bottle, but was worth it. It worked great. I tried it on the flim and it did not soften the flim.
It was a job but the front of the coach looks good once again.
Now to chase air leaks, reglue a the door window and more. -
Chuck and Barb, It is Jim and Barb’s bane also and I fear there is no answer.
We get the same dust when parked indoors in a garage with a washed concrete floor.
Traveling out and about in warm places there is much dust in all the surrounding air and it tends to get sucked inside. Don’t forget to turn the OTR air off when leaving a “clean” paved road. You forget one time and the dust will spew forth long agter you remember what you did.
The only answer I can come up with is to clean more often.

I’m surprised that that’s all! It seems like PC is so very active.
Congratulations !

hi Jon,
How is Di going to deal with not having a carousel in the rear closet!??? Will she make you move it to the new bus?
will you Celebrate knowing Di has to donate most of her closing?
Do you need the local phone number of the Salvation Army? (they do a great job).Me thinks, the height of the bus and whether it fits into your garage is secondary to how much clothing Di can hang indide the coach!
He he.
Cheers,
Ronald

Jon could you extend your trench out to the crown of the driveway/garage to insure nothing drags? You could have grated covers made to cover this trench when not needed.

All the pilots here will understand this and it is how I determine when I need fuel. To make the significance of this greater, everyone should understand I minimize fuel stops and take advantage of my fuel capacity.
I have the 208 gallon standard tank with the 90 galllon auxiliary for a total of 298 gallons. Depending on circumstances I have gone as far as 1900 miles with the fuel gauge showing near empty. My fuel consumption has never gone above or below 7 to 8 miles per gallon so I have a theoretical 2100 to 2400 mile range.
I just simply set the trip odometer at each refueling to zero and I just never go further than 1800 to 1900 miles before refueling. Routinely with typical trips our round trip distance falls around 1300 to 1400 miles so I fill up upon returning home. I treat the fuel gauge as nothing more than the suggested fuel level, with the trip odometer being the more accurate fuel level indicator. It just requires me to know my average MPG and a minimum amount of fuel on board that I want to have when I fuel up.
When I get the new coach I will fuel frequently until I learn the average MPG the coach delivers and then I will aim for a minimum fuel on board at refueling like 40 gallons, allowing me whatever range 168 gallons will get me. The new coach has 208 gallons of fuel capacity. My guess is the new range will be 1000 miles.
In the plane there was no odometer, so refueling was based on hours. My time until dry tanks was 6 hours, so I set 4 hours as my maximum time of operation since topping the tanks. Same concept and it worked very well.

I totally agree with Jon, probably not a good choice.
However, my formula for risk
versus reward includes a factor for entertainment value that sometimes gets me
in trouble.At this point I’m on the camping side of the bridge and
need to cross it again to go home. I don’t think there will be a problem since
as Tom pointed out, there is a safety factor built into the design of the bridge,
wish me luck! -
